PhenoLab AY 2023-2024

The PhenoLab was set up in 2019 as a free of charge series of seminars and lectures organised and held by Prof. Dr. Francesca Brencio. Originally born with the support of Dr. Prisca Bauer of the Systemic Research and Psychotherapy Section at the Department of Psychosomatic Medicine at the Freiburg Medical Centre (Germany), from October 2021 the PhenoLab activities have procedeed autonomously under the sole responsibility of Prof. Brencio.

From the Academic Year 2023-2024 the PhenoLab activities will be divided in four types: two free of charge and two with registration fees:
